Compatibility

-Compatible with all JFD's gameplay mods, and have special support for JFD's Mercenary
-Compatible Pouakai's Enlightenment Era
-Not compatible with overhaul mods
-To new civilizations mods, RER should be able to run with them. However, as RER change the style of Musketman, Landsknecht and Lancer(though it is removed, technically, Reiter is the UNIT_LANCER), if any UU in new civilizations replace those units, may cause some balance issues. And authors may find that some UU would be more historical-properly if they replace new units in RER. It is impossible for me to solve those problems, the only way to solve them is new civilizations mods' author add support to RER.

To modders:
The mod id of RER is: 66f38ce9-fc7b-448d-a7db-949d105b9b9f

You can detect whether RER is enable with the SQL code below:

Code:

AND EXISTS (SELECT * FROM Technologies WHERE Type = 'TECH_RER_PIKE_AND_SHOT')
